A lot of people here think you can tweak a couple of things here and there and end up with a 'stealth' fighter. Unfortunately, they are living in their little worlds where their imagination ( or rather wishes) work just fine and anything and everything can be done by their brilliant piece of thinking - which no one else in the world had thought of or was simply incapable of doing.
A 'stealth' fighter is not something that every tom, dick and harry's plane can be turned into. It has to be designed as a stealth fighter from the bottom up i.e. right from the first conceptual drawings. Otherwise, the US wouldnt have spent $50 billion on an F-22 but made a F-16X, F-14X and what not and Russia would have been having a SU-30X and Mig-29X ( for some reason everyone seems to associate an 'X' when fantasizing their favorite aircraft to become a stealth fighter so I kept the convention).
There will be no Stealth JF-17...EVER... because if there is, it won't be anything like the JF-17 and will be an entirely different plane. The best JF-17 will have is weight reduction and 'some' RCS reduction upgrades.
